Revised Literal Translation
Job 3:12-17
12Why did the kneesH1290 preventH6923 me? or why the breastsH7699 that I should suckH3243?
13For now should I have lain stillH7901 and been quietH8252, I should have sleptH3462: then had I been at restH5117,
14With kingsH4428 and counsellorsH3289 of the earthH776, which builtH1129 desolate placesH2723 for themselves;
15Or with princesH8269 that had goldH2091, who filledH4390 their housesH1004 with silverH3701:
16Or as an hiddenH2934 untimely birthH5309 I had not been; as infantsH5768 which never sawH7200 lightH216.
17There the wickedH7563 ceaseH2308 from troublingH7267; and there the wearyH3581H3019 be at restH5117.1
